Wedding breakfast high tea

By now everyone knows how much I love a wedding so I was delighted when the Bride to be asked me to organise a breakfast High Tea for her bridal party and family.
 
I arrived at the mothers home at 7am ready to go, the girls spent their morning sipping tea, eating breakfast treats and taking turns for hair & makeup, the morning was very relaxed and flowed nicely.
 
The breakfast High Tea was a first for Petite Pippin, we tailored the menu to suit the time of day and I even popped by the night before to set up just to ensure I wasn't under anyone's feet on the morning of the wedding.
 
The girls looked amazing and my only disappointment was I didn't get to see the Bride in her dress but I will be following this up.
 
Below are the photos of this elegant High Tea, the menu included;
  • Bircher Muesli Cups
  • Oatmeal, Fruit Choc Chip Rounds
  • Banana Bread with Mascarpone
  • Petite Scones
  • Ham, Cheese, Tomato Croissants
  • Bacon, Egg Cottage Cheese, Spring Onion Muffins
 
 
 

Good Shepherd High Tea

At Petite Pippin we like to work with charities and various organisations to ensure everyone can enjoy the high the experience.  Last year we donated a High Tea voucher to a charity auction for Good Shepherd http://www.goodshepvic.org.au/about.
 
The gathering was for 10 ladies, but with a little bit of a twist.  The voucher was bought by two friends who decided to each invite 4 guests each they didn't know too well. I especially loved this concept as we all fall into our comfort zones and routines, and sometimes forget to push ourselves out into this big wide world to seek new adventures.  I was also surprised to be invited to sit down and enjoy the high tea with this amazing group of strangers.
 
Conversation flowed and laughter filled the room in the gorgeous Fitzroy home which made this Autumn day slightly warmer.
